![]() Last, there's no way to tell how much charge the Tumi has unless it is connected to the Moto Z. Granted, many external batteries seem to hover around the 2,200 mAh size, but I guess I'm surprised Tumi didn't go for broke and push the capacity to 3,000 mAh or more, which would have delivered a full charge to the stock battery of both the Z and Z Force. You might be better off to take advantage of the phone's rapid charging to get it to 100% before slapping the Tumi on to charge it. If you plug the pair into a charger, the Tumi charges first (slowly), and then the phone charges. Also, the Moto Z's quick-charging powers don't seem to apply to the Tumi. I wish the battery pack had its own plug. That means you have to attach it to the Moto Z to charge it. It has no USB port or other input other than the magnetic connector on the back. Like all battery packs that attach to phones, the Tumi adds bulk and weight to the Z, but the phone is already so slim that the size increase is well within reason.įirst, the Tumi can't be charged separately. The curved shape helps the Z fit deep in your palm. ![]() It is black, sleek, and flows seamlessly with the design of the Moto Z. The mod itself is made of plastic and has a grainy texture to it. As far as battery packs go, the Tumi Power Pack is one of the most usable thanks to a foolproof design.

You can purchase the Moto Mod Polaroid Insta-Share Printer from Motorola directly. There are a lot of other great mods out there I would pick over the printer for most people.īUT, if you fit one of those niche use cases, like the digital marketer example I used, this mod is right in your wheel-house and pairing it with a Moto Z could be a very worthwhile investment. We upgrade our phones frequently in this day and age, so investing in a mod you may use a few times a year isn’t ideal. If you want to buy it as a nice to have to use at Christmas sort of thing, I do not think you would get your money worth out of it. Therefore, unless you have a very specific use case that will enable you to use the printer frequently, I would give this a pass. The printer mod is very well built, performs well and the print quality is passable, but not by any means outstanding. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || ).push() I would have liked to see Motorola/Polaroid include a USB A to C cable to make charging easier, but you can use the USB-C charger from your Moto Z to charge the built-in mod battery. The printer ships alone with no cables, but does come with a starter pack of 10 sheets of paper to get you going, and slip of paper advising you how to load the paper. The prints also have an adhesive backing so you can print stick them anywhere you like if that’s your thing. ![]() This mod, like its siblings, clamps onto the back of any current Moto Z phone and through the use of a dedicated app, prints off 2×3 pictures on a special zero-ink paper, otherwise known as “Zink”. When Motorola sent over the Insta-Share projector, they also sent along another Moto Mod, the Polaroid Insta-Share printer. ![]() ![]() My kids really enjoyed watching movies on it, and my wife and I are planning on bringing this on camping trips this summer to set up an outdoor movie theatre at night. However, after using the projector a handful of times I was amazed at how fun and useful the projector was. I went into the review with a lot of skepticism, thinking that this was nothing more than an overpriced gimmick that would be sure to end up in a drawer, never to be seen again. I recently reviewed the Motorola Insta-Share Projector. ![]()
